Timberland Football Looks for Life After Transition

After a rebuilding 2010, the Timberland Wolves are stocked with upperclassmen and a returning aerial attack.

Last year wasn’t the first time Timberland suffered through growing pains. Two seasons ago, the Wolves played well in the Gateway Athletic Conference North, storming to a 9-2 record and an appearance in the Class 5 state playoffs. But as if a heavy senior turnover wasn’t misery enough heading into last season, the program also made the shift to the competition-heavy GAC South.

Highlighted by a 15-run second inning, the Indians put together a stats-packed game that ranked in several team single-game records, as well as setting a new mark with 14 hits in one inning. The previous record of 13 had held since 1999 and been tied twice since then. “(Zumwalt East) had …
